The opening is a little confusing if you don't well recall the second film, so ensure that you read wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Terminator_2:_Judgment_Day#Plot first.

Here’s Google search interest for “remove president” from 2020 to 2025.

A matplotlib plot titled "Google Search Interest Over Time: 'Remove President' (US)" shows the relative search interest for the phrase "Remove President" in the United States from July 2020 to May 2025. The y-axis represents search interest, while the x-axis spans from July 2020 to May 2025. The graph features a colored area under the curve: red shading highlights periods around significant political events, while blue shading covers the rest.

Key political events are marked with vertical dashed lines and labels, including:
- 2020 Election (Nov 2020)
- Capitol Riot (Jan 2021)
- Biden Inauguration (Jan 2021)
- Afghanistan Withdrawal (Aug 2021)
- Jan 6 Committee Report (Dec 2022)
- Trump Assassination Attempt (Jul 2024)
- 2024 Election (Nov 2024)
- Trump 2nd Inauguration (Jan 2025)
- "Liberation Day" Tariffs (Mar 2025)

Notable spikes in search interest occur around the 2020 Election, Capitol Riot, Biden Inauguration, and again after the 2024 Election and Trump’s 2nd Inauguration. The graph visually links peaks in search activity to these political milestones, suggesting increased public concern or controversy during these times.

Word choice matters when localizing a or . Localization of such a creative work should preserve and convey the experience and nature of the , , and characters.

Yes, I notice when captions are more interpretations than verbatim translations for languages I understand. With captioning on such productions, there are occasions to learn helpful English words I might not otherwise encounter — words like “scree” and “transhumance”.

#PennedPossibilities 645 — What was the most unexpected challenge you encountered while writing your WIP?

I'm talking about my current dark fantasy story (WIP): I'm still having a hard time figuring out how to incorporate a particular plot twist. On the one hand, it shouldn't be obvious from the beginning, but at the same time the reader should think that they could have come up with it themselves when it's resolved.
